Older Versions: For older versions of Minecraft. Please know there might be old bugs that were fixed in newer versions.

About - This mod has been around since April of 2011!

This mod has the option to change the player's gender or age. Each combination is complete with custom hurt sound effects. You might find a female zombie frolicking in the dark. Use this on your server to synchronize all the settings for each player across all connected clients!

Males: Just like normal Minecraft, but with the old hurt sounds!Females: Are slightly smaller than males, have their own default texture and have their own hurt sound.Children: Are smaller, have their own default texture based on gender and age, and have a higher sound pitchZombies: There are occasional female zombies that have the female model and their own texture

• Will other users of the mod see the mod features even though the server does not have it installed?
In order to see the effects this mod adds, you only need the client installed. The server is simply to sync the genders across all clients that have the mod.

• Does this mod require special skins?
The skin you set on your Minecraft Profile is not removed by this mod. If a user has a skin, their skin will show. If a user does not have a skin, the default player textures will show based on that players gender and age settings.

• Where did you get the idea for this mod?
This is the original mod that adds females/genders children/age into Minecraft. Gender was originally created this mod because I was annoyed at being a male caveman back in April of 2011. You can find more information here.

Help & Troubleshooting

• Gender isn't working
Please make sure the version of Gender you have installed supports the exact version of Minecraft you are using. If you are using Gender 1.0.3 or later, the mod will warn you that features may not work if you install it on an unsupported version when you open up the Gender menu.

• I dont' see the model/texture changes
Another mod you have installed may conflict with Gender's core modding. I consider this to be a very RARE occurance due to the way that gender uses core modding to inject it's hooks into Mojang code before Minecraft starts. If another mod is using core modding and has completely removed contents from a method before or after Gender's core modding takes place, it's likely that Gender isn't the only incompatibility that the other mod has. Core modding is supposed to be minimal and elegant. All modders should use it sparingly to avoid such issues.
Gender's core modding effects can also not appear if a mod such as RenderPlayerAPI/SmartMoving replace origional player objects (see explaination below).

•What is server override?
When the priority setting on the client is set to client, the client gets the final say in the player settings.
When the priority setting on the client is set to server, the server gets the final say in the player settings.

Server override is just a notice so you know that the server is controlling the final outcome players' settings.
You may see this flash for a quick moment when playing single player mode. This is okay. This happens because in single player, your client is technically the server. It just means that the settings on the server are different from the settings on the client - for one brief moment while they are synchronizing.

• Weirdness when using gender with RenderPlayerAPI/SmartMoving
Truth be told, MinecraftForge's core modding capability takes away the need to use RenderPlayerAPI. Core modding allows mod developers to add, remove and inject code before Minecraft starts. With core modding, any mod developer can make their mod work with every other mod so long as they are all careful about how they modify the Mojang code. Gender uses core modding to hook into different sections of Minecraft code, including player model and rendering.
In order for RenderPlayerAPI/SmartMoving to fix it's compatibility with Gender and many other mods, Divisor (the maintainer) needs to push all rotational changes to the origional player objects (model, render, entity, etc) instead of ignoring their existance.

Helpful Info
If you are using Gender 1.0.3 or later, please press 'G' (default key) to open the Gender menu. Then click on the book icon on the bottom right of the screen. This will bring you to a screen that has information helpful for troubleshooting.

Thanks! Its people like you that I strive to keep going with this!
Your skin will work! But who knows if the skin will line up in the right place for it to look decent.

I'm Very, Very new to mine craft modding... I still need to figure out what the mod loaders do (.class wise) in order to change some things & lines and not others.

I have to figure things out first ><♥
So, kindly give me some time :biggrin.gif:

ok, before you say anything, i read your topic, i know you have a whole project ahead...

That being said, my question its about the mesh itself, how different is it from the original? I mean, to me in the images it just looks like a default complexity but with boobs when women should have a different body complexity than men (A.K.A. they should be tinner than men). I may sound sexist, but if its going to be a standard original mesh but with boobs, then its not that "female" its just the default mesh but with a rectangle on his chest.

Thanks.

My aim is to make it as close to the style that notch would have used. Yes, I could have made it all roundish, but guys aren't square either.
Who knows I might just ease the shoulders a bit... But that's a lot of angle work! So, I'll just draw my line at this for now.
I need to get the mod option done first...then I can perfect things.

Personally, I'll be glad to see the day when this gets made in such a way that a player can actually -choose- the gender of their character, and have it actually affect the body mesh and voice. There's a lot of room in minecraft for character customization... and this just goes to show that it can be pushed even further still.

I'm definitely going to keep an eye on this... watch how things progress.

In the meanwhile, keep up the excellent work! It's very cool to see what people are making of minecraft, every day!

Thanks Everyone! Yes, I'm aiming for the option settings...I just haven't figured out how to do that yet...

I like what you're doing here. If I were to suggest anything it'd be to thin the arms a bit. I use a female skin but the Lou Ferrigno arms bother me more than the voice or even lack of other feminine features. Assuming this mod works with existing skins I'll definitely be giving it a whirl.
